..moving swiftly on

After far too long a road - when I corresponded corrupted collided with matters of knowledge, experimentation, life, work and play.. I have now completed my research on Spatial Choreographies stage 1 - Performative Space and the Construction of Place. I've had the champagne and a few minor spurts of celebrations.. so now, moving swiftly on..

I plan to order my thoughts, get the next stage going, get more involved/collaborate and now that there is time to this, I am excited again.

Some highlights..:

So long.. but no 'so long'..

Well it's been a while.. PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION
A lot has happened and I am about to tell you that this blog will be updated v soon. But as you can see... I have been busy

Time to get back to 'normal' [whatever : where ever that is..]

..............
             ................ I have finally submitted my research project. I expect there is still some work to do, the viva etc, but it is in nevertheless. My son was very pleased to hear this. He has been patiently listening and taking part in my journey with this for a very, very long time. The outcome should be more than this really, a higher degree. But it is what it is. I am happy for the achievement, learning and knowledge I have gotten out of this. I am now, having submitted, really excited about my next project, about starting blogging again, about new ideas and networks I can start taking seriously.. So much I have been putting on hold! For absolute ages! It's strange how something so interesting and something I love so much took such a long time. I felt in isolation and not at ease with the situation/arrangements and I don't easily fit in where I am 'placed'. But that too has been a part of the learning in all of this. But most importantly, I don't have to say "I haven't got time, I have to read this, do this, go there..' to my son anymore. And I can have a late night just watching films, reading books or doing nothing! Can't remember what that was like. Even though I have not always been studying lately, the study guilt, pressure and curiosity have all been there like a bright sun or dark cloud, yes it has been a bit of both, a lot of both....

So Cheers to me. And huge cheers to my lovely son who must be so fed up with hearing about.....  Well done. The champagne is still in the fridge. I will get to that when it feels right.

India!

India - this is the only sentence I managed to 'publish' whilst on the trip: We have travelled by plane, then another plane, coach, bus and foot.. [so it must have been good]..

The trip was out of this world, I even did not manage to keep a diary as I always, always do. Instead I had too much to do, fun and interesting things and a wonderful group of amazing people around me for two weeks. Best ever. Just best ever... Big love to all in this amazing group!

I will update the post soon. In meantime, some random snapshots:
